Hopefully you folks are more clued up than I.
Anyway - Fully charged my Samsung S2 last night. Found it dead this morning.
Charged it but it wasn't really taking charge and was getting a bit hot and bothered.
Picked up a new battery from the local fix unlock mobile phones shop. Well it just did the same thing to the new battery and phone is dead again.
So assuming the phone has a fault. I can get it to run with the charger plugged in, but I don't want to risk frying the sim or memory card. It gets really hot.
Just hoping you smart folks will be able to tell me;
Is it just a matter of buying a new Android phone and sticking my sim and memory card in and away I go again as if not a lot has happened. Oh I am on a Sim only contract.
Really need my phone right now due to situation with elderly parents.
Thinking of getting an S4 (300quid to pick up in store) as I liked the S2. Just want something that is nice and easy to use like the S2. Or am I better looking at other androids, I can I do better for less?
